One way that this word connects to something that i have experienced in life is that in life, there are certian retail outlets, suh as ocean state job lot and christmas tree shops that try to make "bootleg" food products for real products so that they can be sold cheaper. This is wrong because in food, it is about value and not price. If i want to buy saltines, i want to buy the origional brand, not a brand from some comany out of a shack in indiana. this is orrupting the food markets and therefore they are adulterating the food buying market.
G. One way that this word connects to a movie that i have seen or a book that i have read is that in the movie "Knowing" there is a person who steals dvds which is corrupting the system because he didnt buy them. he is paying for them cheaper by staeling them.
